Davey Microlene Acquasafe Test Strips - 10 Pack, Tank Water Monitoring NZ

Davey Microlene Acquasafe Test Strips — 10 Pack

Know your tank water is protected — test before you drink.

Acquasafe test strips are used to monitor the residual level of Acquasafe hydrogen peroxide disinfectant in your tank water. Regular testing confirms whether your water is maintaining an effective level of protection and tells you when it's time to re-dose.

Sold as a 10-pack. Compatible with Davey Microlene Acquasafe tank water disinfectant (sold separately).

Why Testing Matters

Acquasafe protection diminishes over time and is diluted when new water enters the tank through rainfall. Without testing, there is no reliable way to know whether your tank is still protected. Testing after significant rainfall events and on a regular ongoing basis is the recommended approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I test my tank water?

Test after significant rainfall events — new water entering the tank dilutes the existing Acquasafe concentration and can introduce new contamination. Also test on a regular ongoing basis to confirm the residual remains at an effective level in a stable system.

What do the test strips measure?

The strips measure the residual level of Acquasafe (hydrogen peroxide) in your tank water, confirming whether the concentration is sufficient to maintain effective disinfection.

What do I do if the test shows a low reading?

Re-dose with Acquasafe following the standard dosage table — available on the Acquasafe product page. Allow the required contact time before use.

Are these strips compatible with other disinfectants?

These strips are designed for use with Davey Microlene Acquasafe. If you are using a different disinfectant, get in touch and we'll advise on the right testing method.
